Cleaning and replacing the metal grease filter and the
long-life activated charcoal filter
Long-life activated charcoal filters are only used in the recirculation mode.
Unlike the standard activated charcoal filter, the long-life activated charcoal
filter can be cleaned and reactivated. The long-life activated charcoal filter
should be changed ever month with normal use or whenever the button
flashes.
The filter can be cleaned in a dishwasher at 65 °C (select an «intensive» resp.
«heavy soil» wash programme). Wash the filter separately so that it does not
become clogged with food particles.
If it is not possible to wash the filter in a dishwasher, soak the filter in 60 °C
water and detergent for one hour. Then rinse well.
To reactivate the activated charcoal, dry the filter without the frame in the
oven.
➤
Select top and bottom heat or hot air and set the temperature to 100 °C.
Place the filter on a wire shelf and allow to dry for 60 minutes.
The long-life activated charcoal filter needs to be replaced after about
3 years as its ability to absorb odours declines. The spent long-life
activated charcoal filter can be disposed of in the household waste.
